dynamic soundtracks are really challenging!! one of the cooler projects i've done recently. it's difficult to figure out a structure for this sort of thing, since the development of the track is really up to the individual player's actions; trying to make every layer fit is super fun!

Please blow up the public comment (included below): BREAKING NEWS (7/15) — The administration wants to destroy Chaco Canyon without consulting Tribal Nations. It’s an irreplaceable historic & cultural site with 4,700 archeological sites that could be lost to the bulldozers of oil & gas development

Blippo+ is on sale! look if we're friedns eventually i'll convert you to loving and watching blippo+. As a goofy FMV and bad television fan, i cannot express my adoration for this game. Might as well get it now instead of in a month when i finally convince you and it isn't on sale, alright?

This might be one of the most insane scandals in game history When Pokemon Go players scan PokeStops, theyve been unknowingly building a detailed visual model of the world which is being sold to a military contractor to build a no-GPS positioning for the new generation of unmanned killing machines

not super impressed with the backrooms movie. i am wondering if there are ableist undertones instated by making the monsters almost-regular people who have facial/limb difference and became non-responsive. i felt like there was some empathy for them in the end, but still... rubs me the wrong way.

too many good, cool-looking games coming out right now guys. slow down!!!! i want to play them all!!

My favourite arcade racer of the last five years from @walaber.com got European-themed DLC for £4, so to celebrate, I basically spent some time talking about a car park in York. Anyway, you know, buy the game and DLC

forbes.comBrilliant 2024 Arcade Racing Game Gets $5 DLC, And It’s A Steal‘Parking Garage Rally Circuit’ has always been a silly idea, but its new ‘European Tour’ DLC proves it respects its audience more than most.

The European Tour DLC for my retro arcade driving game Parking Garage Rally Circuit is now available on Steam! 🤩 Here’s me trying (and failing) to climb the leaderboard for the Paris track:

lot of negativity towards AI lately, but consider : are these tools ethical or environmentally sustainable? No. *but* do they enable great things that people want? Also no. *but* are they being made by well meaning people for good reasons? Once again, no. maybe you're not being negative *enough*

Honestly, AI slop PRs are becoming increasingly draining and demoralizing for #Godot maintainers. If you want to help, more funding so we can pay more maintainers to deal with the slop (on top of everything we do already) is the only viable solution I can think of: fund.godotengine.org

Adriaan@adriaan.games

Godot's GitHub has increasingly many pull requests generated by LLMs and it's a MASSIVE time waster for reviewers – especially if people don't disclose it. Changes often make no sense, descriptions are extremely verbose, users don't understand their own changes… It's a total shitshow. #godotengine

quit spotify! i did last year and i am still alive

UMAW@umaw.bsky.social

In April 2024, Spotify implemented a new scheme: songs with less than 1k streams per year would no longer receive royalties. The data for 2025 was just released via Luminate, and 88% of songs have been demonetized. Read it again: 88% of songs on Spotify have been demonetized.

i'm playing @blippo.plus and having a blast!! i wish i'd thought of this, just so i could see my friends dress up in costumes in front of a green screen and make weirdly thought-provoking parodies of TV programmes... my biggest takeaway so far is we have got to bring back big sleeves. it's time!!

dispatch is a miracle of a game. i've never been so invested in something with so many glaring issues. we shouted at the screen for the entire finale. such great design and art direction! it's a really compelling use of the "choices matter" genre, even if it doesn't push it as far as it should imo!
